Chelsea Cool Interest In Inter Wingback Denzel Dumfries, Italian Broadcaster Reports

Chelsea’s interest in signing Inter wingback Denzel Dumfries is starting to fade for the time being as they turn their attention to other targets.

This according to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, who report that the Blues are currently prioritizing moves for Leicester City defender Wesley Fofana and Chelsea striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and that they are less interested in signing Dumfries.

Chelsea have looked the likeliest big club to try and move for Dumfries in recent weeks, but while the Dutchman is still on their radar, their pursuit of him has cooled down as they look to prioritize other business.

Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain remain interested in signing defender Milan Skriniar before the summer transfer window slams shut, but the sense is that they would not be willing to meet Inter’s €70 million asking price and that the highest they’d go with a bid is €60 million.

The Parisians are also considering other targets, and could end up moving for a different defender this summer rather than Skriniar.
